Also if you haven't got one now get an RCD fitted or ideally a new consumer unit.

I'm not if that's the best place to find a good fault finding electrician. The poor chap might end up with a 5 day wonder Kitchen fitter!

Just to finish off the thread. We have now found a great local electrician who resolved the problem, and I asked him to do a whole inspection on the house to make sure everything is OK. The issue was dodgey wiring in the landing, which with condensation in the wall managed to create a circuit.

Which the others should have found !

It's good that you got back and let us know what the fault was

The shock may be due to the shower basin becoming live via an impedence that has till now limited the current to a tingle.

The leakage being from a LIVE conductor via damp timber flooring and then moisture on the plastic material of the shower tray to the person's feet.

Possibly due to a water leak making the floor under the shower wet and this dampness reaching a live conductor in lighting ciruit of room below.


EDIT I did not see the result before I posted
